I have a transmission leak which Saab dealer says is at the rear of the
transmission (gasket). Would this be a difficult job for a handy layman to
attempt? Thanks

I am guessing this is a C900? It could be the rear main crank seal, the
oil pump o-ring, or the shift shaft seal. I kinda doubt it would be a
diff cover gasket, but it could be.

My 1992 900 doesn't leak any oil at all. A drop of coolant now and then maybe,
but that's it.
